303-1. PHTHORIMAEA Meyr. (=*Lita Anct. nec Ti-.). 



2G70. diminutella Z. — Tiiormina, 3. V. The specimens are some- 

 what larger thaii five, stili in Zeller's cabinet, dated Messina, 26. VII., 

 aud evidently represent au earlier brood of this species. 



* 3703. salicorniae Hrng. — Syracuse, a single specimen bred , 24 

 V., from a larva feeding- between stems of Salicornia fruticosa, col- 

 lected 26. IV. New to Sicily; I bave since identitìed a second specimeu, 

 frolli Signor Eagnsa's coUection. 



311. APRO AREM A Drnt. (=*Anaoampsis Stgr-Rbl., nec Crt.)- 



2838. psoralella Mill. l = infestella Rbl. vide Wlsui. Pr. Z. Soc 

 Loud. 1907, 932-3 sp. 28 (1908)]. — A single specimen, taken amoiig 

 Psoralea bituminosa, is undoubtedly Millière's species, whicb has beeu 

 frequently confused witb 2835 anth ìjlidella Hb., from whicb it is di- 

 stiuct. Tbe larvae are also distiiiguisbable altbongb mucb alike. It 

 is a rather larger s[)ecies tlian tbe trae anthylidella , and is new to 

 the Siciliau List. 



313. EPILECTIS Meyr. 



*2858. petiginella Mn. — tbree specimens, Palermo, 1-6. IV. The 

 species was originally described by Mann from the Tyrol. In Zeller's 

 cabinet is a single specimen, collected by Mann at Botzen , and in 

 anothcr part of tbe same drawer are tbree others, labelled « Gel sp.», 

 collected, evidently by Zeller bimself, at « Syracuse 4. V., 12. V. IG.V.» 

 respectively, bnt it does uot appear to bave been recoguised or recor- 

 ded from Sicily. 



314. ARISTOTELIA Hb. (= Ohrysopora Clms.). 



*2894-l. aletris Wlsm. | Ent. Ree. 31. 1011 (1919)] — a single 9, 

 taken at Syracuse, 26. IV., is smaller than 2895 eppeisheimi Stgr. , 

 and less distinctly marked : tbe pattern and colouring present , ho- 

 wever, only slight modifìcatious in contrast wlth that species. It is 

 mealy white, profusely speckled witb fascons; a pale yellow fascia, 

 outwardly ciuved, bends inward nearly to the tlexus and is followed 

 by two pale yellow dorsal patcbes, tbe outer one rising to the outer 

 end of the celi, bnt not to the costa. Esp. al. 6-5 mm. I bave recently 

 described this new Sicilian species.
